An investigation into the ferry crash in South Korea has been launched following the disaster involving the Queen Jenuvia II. The ferry, which was carrying 267 passengers, ran aground on a rocky islet off the coast of the country on Wednesday night. The incident has prompted authorities to accuse the ferry operator and two other officers of gross negligence, potentially leading to legal action against them. The exact cause of the crash is still under examination, but initial reports suggest that the operator was distracted by his phone at the time of the incident. This has raised concerns about the safety and regulation of maritime transport in the region. The South Korean government has pledged to review its safety protocols in response to the tragedy, emphasizing the need for stricter enforcement of regulations to prevent such incidents in the future.
